About this property

Mountain View Desert Home - 25 Mins to White Sands

*Please note that the homeowner has a locked-off master bedroom at the property that cannot be used by guest*

Breathtaking desert flowers and New Mexico mountains surround your sunny getaway in the charming town of Alamogordo. Your party of up to 6 will love this spacious 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom home with additional sleeping in the sunroom. Less than an hour from White Sands National Monument, Cloudcroft, and Ruidoso, you'll have many adventures to embark on during your stay.

-- THE PROPERTY --

Bedroom 1: Queen Bed | Bedroom 2: Full Futon | Sunroom: Spare Mattress

A quiet, private drive leads you to your New Mexico home-away-from-home in the Tularosa Basin of the Chihuahuan Desert, bordered by the beautiful Sacramento Mountains to the east. Take in your surroundings from the 200-square-foot deck and enjoy sunny afternoons in the spacious back patio throughout your stay.

Inside, comfortable furniture and all the home essentials invite hours of relaxation, as skylight windows brighten the vaulted ceiling living space with exposed wood beams. Unwind in front of the 55-inch flat-screen cable TV and watch favorite shows or movies during your downtime.

The fully equipped kitchen includes everything you’ll need to prepare gourmet recipes for any meal, including stainless steel appliances and an espresso machine to energize your vacation mornings. Set the classic 4-person oak table and share your home-cooked feasts with loved ones.

Catch some privacy before bed and cozy up on the wicker bench in the sunroom, which also has a toaster oven to heat up some leftovers as a late-night snack. When you’re ready to call it a day, the main bedroom provides a brand new queen bed and the converted office bedroom hosts a comfy fold-out futon bed.

-- THE LOCATION --

Perfect for adventurous couple and families seeking an outdoorsy desert experience, this home lies within walking distance to Desert Foothills Park - a large, public recreation area with paved trails, picnic pavilions and more. Venture a little further with a 25-minute drive to White Sands National Monument and observe the rare, gypsum sand dune landscape.

Horse Ridge, Ortega Peak, and Herberger Peak are all waiting to be hiked just minutes from your door and, if you’re traveling in the winter, Ski Cloudcroft is just a half hour away. Take a break from the outdoor recreation and visit the New Mexico Museum of Space History or the Alameda Park Zoo.

Head about an hour north to spend a day in Ruidoso or stay closer to home and treat yourself to quaint nights out in the town of Alamogordo. Stroll through local parks, stop in local boutiques and thrift stores, and test out popular eateries like Brown Bag Deli and Memories.

Great location
House is comfortable but dated. Nature trail within walking distance. Views were amazing. More towels would have been appreciated. To sleep 6 one bed was a mattress on floor. Washer and dryer needed work around to run.

Beautiful view of sleeping lady mountain
I would stay at this property again. It was just me and my husband and we had plenty of room and comfy bed. Not sure how comfy the 2nd bed is because I did not use it. Wouldn't want to put two adults in that bed. Everything else was wonderful.

House is tired and worn out.
Kitchen and bathroom date to probably mid-60s, have never been updated. Scale build up from the hard water was terrible and made everything appear to be not cleaned. We had to run vinegar through the coffee maker before using to clean it. Living room furniture was pushed up in the corner of room and covered with blankets, so obviously the picture in the listing did not reflect our experience. Check out instructions specified emptying trash in the dumpster in the alley across the street, but actually the "dumpster" is the private trash and belonging to the houses on that street. Perhaps these owners should start paying for trash pick up. Would not stay again.

Comfortable home in a great location
We had a great stay at this home. It was very comfortable for our family and we enjoyed many day trips and excursions— sunsets at white sands, organ mountains (pine loop trail), heart of the desert pistachio farm, space history museum .

Suited our purposes
This home was advertised as a 2-bedroom, but it really had one bedroom and a crowded office with an uncomfortable futon. Lightbulbs were missing in the bathroom light fixture. We needed a place to stay for a few days for events at the nearby AFB, and this home was conveniently located, but I think it was overpriced.
